I feel like Larry King is actually the leathery bacon in your analogy, which means poor Walter needs to do double duty as both buns... lovingly cradling that sweet, juicy Freeman patty...

Thank you for all of this; in retrospect, it really explains why I remember loving seasons 1 and 2... and then tapping out after the Cadence plotline, for no real articulable reason other than, "it just doesn't feel the same."

I wasn’t aware of this culling of writers... only thing I could find was one going to Disney after Season 5. Are you willing to elaborate?

Associated question:

Also, for what it’s worth, in my time on the ground in Iraq surrounded by the Sunni/Shiite shit-show, the Kurds were the most (relatively speaking) reasonable, dependable allies we had.  I could actually sleep with both eyes closed around the Kurds I knew.

That didn’t work for me with Verizon this time around!

Um... not to belittle the enthusiasm and generosity of heart in your comment, but: no measureable, palpable repercussions to date have at all shown us to be anything other than a bunch of mooks/rubes/marks from which he can absolutely thieve with abandon.

I guess I understand the “cornball,” except: in the admittedly fictional MCU, Wakanda was ground zero for Thanos’ invasion of Earth. They held the line to the best of their considerable abilities, and bore the brunt of all casualties up until the moment of The Snap. If I were a lily-white citizen of Earth in the MCU,…

So... a few of my mates will absolutely pop over for pints and a match; in high school there were a few parties where we actually ended up in some heated bug chess matches that — I swear I’m not kidding — had otherwise completely-reasonable-for-that-age people, to include high school girls, rooting enthusiastically on…

Please.dismiss my other reply; it didn't end up where I wanted it, and my android isn't letting me see it now to edit/delete.

lol. thank you.

...or, to supply a little irony, gunfire.

Rabid discussion going on here... I’ll bite: Chess

I mean, absent his personal context, that statement -- at face value -- is absolutely true.  It just applies to the 15th, 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries...

An evil-aligned Children of Bhaal party (PC, Sarevok, Imoen) with Viconia and Edwin(a) was beastly, especially if you dual-classed Imoen into mage — making her a single-character room broom. (BGII, obviously, to get Sarevok.)
